Ladies and gentlemen,
we're honored to be here today
to celebrate a very special event
here in the Congressional Hall.
We're here to celebrate 5 years since 1945.
And for that we have only one man to thank.
Urgent news from the front, sir.
And whose vision has brought these glories to fruition.
General Douglas MacArthur!
MacArthur here.
Sir, Tokyo on the line.
Yes, General.
Task officer O.P. Smith reporting.
As of right now,
Hagaru-ri airstrip is the rear line.
We don't have enough troops to hold off the enemy.
I'm requesting reinforcements
to support our withdrawal route.
General, our troops need to get out of...
Smith! This is war!
Retreating is treason!
I repeat!
Retreating is treason!
You think he knows we can hear him?
Stop all retreating maneuvers!
- General!
- That's an order!
Your request is denied!
- Can that plane take off?
- No, sir.
They are stuck right in the middle of the fine line, sir!
God!
Go, go!
This way, get up there!
Fire!
Reload, fire!
Fire!
Fire!
Go, let's go!
We got everybody on board, Captain.
Got it, get ready!
Fire!
Turn the other one around!
Have it take off from the main road!
Copy that!
Move!
Send reinforcements out tho the Sumun Bridge
as soon as possible.
Call the bombers to clear thr route right now!
I'll go ahead and take command of the 1st Marine Division.
Lead them out on the road to Hungnam Harbor, clear?
Yes, sir!
Go, go!
We made it. We gonna be okay.
All units, full retreat!

Chengfang-dong, Korea
The 9th Corps Frontline HQ
The U.S. forces at Hagaru-ri
have already given up
and started to evacuate towards the south.
According to our reports,
the U.S. doesn't have enough cargo capacity.
Smith is taking the rest of the troops
and retreating towards the Hungnam Port
through the Sumun Bridge.
The Sumun Bridge is their only route to retreat.
Only if we bomb it,
can our units get a chance to besiege them.
Yes! Send a unit to launch penetration attacks.
We can't let them escape!
Order assigned forces to block them
and cut off their retreat.
The 9th Company is already close ti the Sumun Bridge.
The 7th Company of the 1st Storming Regiment.
is qualified for the mission.
However, the 7th Company is at the airport now
Order the 7th Company to withdraw from battle
and head towards the Sumun Bridge immediately.
Blast the bridge!
When our reinforcements arrive,
annihilate the U.S. 1st Marine Division.
- Yes, sir!
- Notify the 7th Company now.
- Yes, sir!
7th Company, keep up!
Check the room in the south. Beware of ambush.
- Put ammo box here.
- There's more here.
2nd Squad, count them. Hurry!
The retreat route has been cleared of the enemy.
Are there any wounded remaining at the airstrip?
Hagaru-ri, do you copy?
All units,
the retreat route has been cleared of the enemy.
Confirmed 500 reds wiped out over.
I repeat... Are...
Those who can still walk, go over there.
Get the wounded into the room.
Put the medical supplies in the tent.
Put him on the bed. Check his condition later.
How many?
Almost 20?
Never mind.
I'll make sure you all go home alive.
We will.
Your frostbite is too bad. This will hurt a bit.
I'll apply some ointment to it.
I'm alright, Commander Zhang.
Stop pretending. We know it hurts.
- Take the badly wounded to the frontline hospital.
- Yes, sir! I'll notify the corpsman.
- Come, it's less windy here.
- It's not that cold.
- Bro, it is ready?
- Almost.
Wait second. I'll be done soon.
There's more here.
All commanders, time for meeting.
Each platoon report your casualties.
1st Platoon downsized by 23 men.
2st Platoon downsized by 21 men.
3st Platoon downsized by 18 men.
4st Platoon, 16 casualties.
78.
Only 9 Party members remain in our company.
This is a critical moment. Get yourself together.
Yes, sir!
Commander, it's the HQ.
This is Zhang Zhuang speaking.
HQ here. 7th Company march south
to approach the U.S. Army.
Stay in 1081 Highland when you reach the Sumun Bridge.
Wait for the order of blasting the bridge.
Do you copy?
Copy.
This thing that can go straight up and down
is their new equipment.
In the future, we will have our own planes
way better than theirs.
Just a matter of time.
- Get ready for departure.
- Yes, sir.
The White House, WASHINGTON D.C.
Come in please.
HARRY S. TRUMAN
U.S. President
Mr. President,
telegram from Far East Command.
General MacArthur is still pushing for use of the A-bomb.
He believer this will bring the turning point
we need to win the war.
He is awaiting your response.
MacArthur must be remainded
that this war is bigger than one man.
Yes, Mr. President.
November 30, 1950
The White House Press Briefing
(Q&A Session)
We will take whatever steps are necessary
to meet the military situantion
just as we always have.
A-BOMB
Mr. President, does that include use of the atomic bomb?
Mr. President, perhaps it would be better if we are allowed
to quote your remarks on that directly?
Does this mean that we wouldn't use the atomic bomb
except on a United Nations authorization?
The action against communist China
depends on the action of the United Nations.
Mr. President...
The 7th Company rushing to
Sumun Bridge of Korea as ordered
Grab him.
Pull him up.
Stand up back there.
Someone fell into the snow.
We can't see the road ahead
in such heavy snow.
1, 2, 3, pull!
Tell back row to stop!
Back row, stop!
Does the compass still work?
Damn, it's frozen.
We've gone so far
and still can't see a sign of the Sumun Bridge.
Everyone stay alert!
1st Platoon, stop and stay alert!
3st and 4st Platoon, stop and stay alert!
THE SUMUN BRIDGE
Yu Congrong, the radio transmitter.
Wanli, give me the radio transmitter.
This should be the Sumun Bridge.
Is that the 9th Company blasting the bridge?
I can't tell.
The 9th Company should have received blasting orders before us.
- Can you reach the HQ?
- The batteries are frozen.
It's down.
- Save them first.
- Go!
You protect the radio transmitter.
- I'll leave it to you.
- Okay.
- 3rd Squad, move!
- Keep up!
Yes, sir!
3rd Squad, follow the commander to the south side.
5rd Squad, to the north side.
Yes, sir!
Save them!
- Cover them!
- Cover them!
- 2nd Squad, charge forward!
- Hurry!
- There are landmines.
- Be careful, everyone!
Throw that frag back!
Save them!
- Fill in their positions!
- Cover us!
- We're the 9th Company.
- Carry him down.
Hang on.
Hang in there.
Knock out their fire point.
- Commander!
- Take the commander away.
Don't mind me. Split and save them.
- Yes, sir!
- Don't leave anyone behind.
Commander, all the wounded were taken away.
Check again.
Carry him down.
Commander, we checked again.
All the wounded were taken away.
Retreat!
All units retreat!
Retreat now!
Hey, hang in there.
216, Liang Youtian.
308,
Fang Qiang.
412, Fu Fengshou.
423, Xiang Chungeng.
The 9th Company... 2nd Squad...
Have they pulled...
Bro, the 2nd Squad has pulled out.
They've pulled out already.
Don't waste it.
Listen.
Save the gauze for someone who can survive.
Cut and distribute to everyone.
The wounded first.
Come over here.
We seized the U.S. canned food from the airstrip.
Instructor, you have it first.
Do as you're told,
and stop that nonsense.
Open your mouth.
It's an order.
Don't chip your teeth on the beans.
Changgui, what are you chewing?
This is good stuff. It's a bit sticky,
like plastic.
(Chewing Gum)
265, Wu Haifeng.
281, Sun Yong.
Take cover!
Take cover now!
Hide the bodies.
Hurry!
Enemy planes!
Hurry!
Carry them into the cave.
Hurry!
Wanli!
- Where's Wanli!
- Commander!
Commander, take cover!
Qianli!
I'm here.
Squat down and don't move!
I see what you mean, sir.
The air is ours.
Call the fly boys,
to back up our troops with some more fire power.
Yes, sir.
How did you guys manage to blast the bridge last night?
What tactics did you use?
Which part did you blast?
Yang, tell them about it.
Yes, sir.
We used the old tactics of creating a diversion.
Our 2nd Platoon made a feint attack on the north side of the bridge.
We dragged out their formation, blocked their bullets,
and restrained their heavy weapons.
All these distracted the enemy's attention.
On the south side, the 1st Platoon
disguised as wounded U.S. soldiers,
while being covered by the 3rd and 4th Platoons.
By infiltrating into the enemy,
they could blast the bridge.
However, they all got caught.
But they managed to take the dynamite pack
onto the bridge before they were killed.
At the crucial moment,
the commander fired the Bazooka
and it blew up the dynamite pack.
But there weren't enough explosives
to collapse the bridge.
The operation failed.
Over this way, boys, over this way.
Took those assholes a whole night just to crack this little hole?
The bridge is our only option.
And must be.
Can't we just fly these boys out?
It will be faster than try to fix this.
We are talking about something we don't have.
The runway is gone.
Are we all clear on the enemy's deployment of firepower?
Are the troops in position?
Yes sir, as requested.
Stay alert.
There's nothing stopping these guys from attacking during the day.
Understood.
All units are in position, sir.
The ground is hot
after bombed by incendiaries.
Bury the batteries in the ground.
Our batteries might have come back to life.
Yu,
our border is over there.
That is home.
Exactly.
That's our motherland.
Our scout is coming back.
He's from the 9th Company.
Commander, Tian Xiangnan is back.
He's from the 9th Company.
Commander,
I have found
their headquarters.
You want to raid their HQ?
It's too cold to stand up.
We can't even pull the bolt from our rifles.
With 10 dynamite packs and 2 bazookas only,
how could we fight them?
Even if you catch their commander,
can we blast the bridge successfully?
What if the plan fails?
The 7th Company continues to blast the bridge.
They would certainly call for reinforcements.
Then it'll be harder to fight them.
Tell me,
is there any easy battle?
The harder it is,
the more determined we should be.
Our army has already set a strategic plan.
It's to cut off their only route to retreat.
So they'll have
nowhere to run.
Remember,
there is no if.
Commander. Where is the wound?
Our commander was shot last night
during a mission.
The plane opened its butt end
and poured down bullets and bombs.
After that, our men in yellow uniforms
dropped one after another.
What should we call those brothers
who were sacrificed?
What should we call those who froze to death
after marching for 6 days and 6 nights
without any food or sleep?
There aren't any heroes who will never freeze to death,
let alone ones who will never be killed.
A soldier only lives for honor and glory.
The heavier the enemy's firepower is,
the stronger we will be.
We must show them we're not to be trifled with.
What's the ammo situation at the secondary location?
Last time we checked,
we had double the amount we requested.
76 AP, 30.
105 HP, 60.
30 CAL heavy machine gun, 2.
B.A.R, 6.
60mm mortar, 6.
MK2 pineapples, 500.
30 CAL carbine bullets, 5000.
Test 1, 2, 3...
- Test 1, 2, 3...
- Good afternoon, sir.
Good news, sir.
Reinforcements are on their way.
It won't take them more than 18 hours .
Sir, we are waiting the next order.
We are maintaining hourly contact.
3rd Battalion, 7th Regiment,
on the move.
Minimal enemy activity detected.
Reinforcements reassured. Arrival on time.
Over.
On time.
Well, Brad.
That's a blessing.
- Have you ever played hide and seek?
- Played hide and seek, sir?
- Yep.
- I haven't done so for a long time,
certainly not at Christmas.
- Well, we're gonna have to do it here.
We're gonna surprise them.
Go invisible,
lure them on the bridge, then jump out like
Jack Rabbit and squash them roaches.
Call it a day.
Based on the old commander's plan,
the 7th and 9th Companies shall cooperate
and split up in 4 units.
I'll take Yu Congrong and Wanli
to raid the U.S. HQ,
capture their commander and force them to surrender.
Mei Sheng and He Changgui
will attack the south and north side
of the bridge, knock down their watchtower
for attririon.
Ping He
will lead the 9th Company
to go through the pipes and seize the Pump House.
Once the bridge is under control, wait for my osprey whistle
and blast it.
What's the Pump House?
The Pump House...
The Pump House is their heart.
You're the best bazooka shooter in the 7th Company.
Remember, don't move before the first firing point
is blown up.
Yes, sir.
Commander,
I have something to tell Wanli.
Save them
until we've finished the battle.
Wanli,
Commander Baili
died because of me back then.
I'm so sorry for that.
Baili is my brother
and you're my brother too.
All of the soldiers in the 7th Company
are my brothers.
My brother died protecting his comrades.
If I were him,
I would do the same thing.
Thank you.
Brother.
Wanli.
Commander.
What?
I...
Well...
What I told you before
might not...
might not all be correct.
You...
You...
I know.
You care about me.
I didn't let you run around before as you might cause trouble.
But now,
run as you wish
and fly
as you like.
Do it fast.
Throw the grenades
as far as possible.
That's our motherland.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Look, is that a radio CV?
Yes.
The radio CV
should be very close to the HQ.
The lights are on in all five blockhouses.
Only one of the houses is not lit-up
with a sniper staying on guard.
I bet that is their HQ.
Yang Wenjian,
was their defense on south side looks like this last time?
All of the fire points
at the south end of the bridge have been removed.
Looks like a trap.
The south fort armed with heavy firepower
must be there to protect the bridge.
We must capture it first.
- Xiao Laoxi.
- Yes?
Go to the north side of the bridge.
Tell them no matter what happens, do not fire
without my signal.
- Yes, sir.
(Searchlight. Down.)
(Leave now)
Bravo 1 to Command,
North Tower down.
Over.
- Password.
- 79.
Steel.
The Instructor said something's wrong on the bridge.
Do not fire without his signal.
Take care of his wound.
Yes, sir.
If we can capture their commander
before Ping He's team and force them to surrender,
we will be haft way there.
Do you see that blockhouse?
Blow it up and we'll commence our operation.
Yes, I saw it.
Can you throw a grenade over there?
No problem.
I myself am a cannon.
Go ahead.
Where are you going?
- Not like that.
- Didn't you tell me to fly as I like?
You have to coordinate with your teammates too!
Grenade!
It's a signal from the commander!
- Artillery Platoon, get ready.
- Load it up.
Fire!
Full alert!
Don't panic! Wait for orders!
Bravo 1 to Command,
enemy assault! South Town down!
Repeat!
Enemy assault! South Town down!
Permission to respond. Over.
This is Command here.
Keep the rest on full alert.
Wait to spring the trap,
copy?
- Copy, out.
This may be a decoy.
The main assault may even be coming from the north.
Stay put. Keep your eyers open
and let them take the bait.
Enjoy, boys.
Out.
Game on.
Let's play.
It was indeed a trap.
Aim for the heart!
- What was that?
- Everybody stay calm.
- Quiet.
- Are you OK?
What was that?
There has been an explosion.
Ask south tower to contact HQ!
Full alert!
Tian Xiiangnan, bring 2 of your men
to scout inside.
- Yes, sir.
Zhong Dingyi, Shen Hailong. Let's go!
Alpha Team to command. Red alert.
Pump house hit!
Wait one!
Request permission to defend!
Repeat!
Request permission to defend!
Over!
Well, that didn't take them long to take that bait, did it?
Not exactly, sir.
The explosion went off inside the Pump House.
Where about?
Inside the Pump House!
Oh, shit!
Goddamnit!
Entrances on both sides. Block them.
Yes.
Move it, move it!
Everybody stay alert.
All clear.
Take cover!
Did I miss something, sir?
Was this part of your plan, sir?
It was
if we win.
Command, Command.
Enemy detected in south-east.
- Over.
- Command to Bravo,
cut out enemy's retreat with 2 troops.
Relay my command,
over.
- Over.
South Fort, South Fort.
Provide suppressing fire
to cut out enemy's retreat.
Hold the rest on full alert.
We're going to wait spring the trap.
Over.
Enemy at 11 o'clock!
Open fire!
Let's go!
Get some men in there. Go, go, go!
Move it, move it!
Tanks, Swanson, take the lead.
Smoke, watch the corners.
Right wing, downstairs.
Evacuate now! Get everybody out!
Let's go!
I can't breathe.
See anything?
No, there's too much smoke.
They blew over the pipe!
Use the grenade!
Fire in the hole!
Grenade! Dodge!
Dodge!
Load me up!
Get those men out of here! Move it, move it!
Let's go!
- Zhong Dingyi, blast the nouth gate.
- Yes, sir!
Zhong Dingyi.
Yu, He Changgui didn't attack from the nouth side.
There must be a reason. I'll go down to find their HQ.
You guys go take down the key point. Especially you!
- Don't be reckless.
- I'll behave.
Tell us before you go anywhere.
Okay.
Alest! South Fort under attack!
Enemy at 12 o'clock!

We are unarmed!

He doesn't understand! You don't see?
- We are unarmed!
- Bomb! Bomb!
Where's your commander?
I'm ask you, where your commander?
Let's go, come on!
Seize the second floor.
Take down that wall.
So we can get to the surface of the bridge.
Here's the blind spot.
Need to go over there.
- Yang Wenjian.
- Present!
Can you discern their firepower deployment?
One M9 Bazooka.
One recoilless rifle.
2 mortars.
That is to say there's a 10m space between each fire point.
That should be where they keep their ammunition.
Use semaphores! Fire on both sides!
Yes, sir!
(Semaphore: Attention!)
(Semaphore: Attack forward!)
(Semaphore: Against both sides. Over!)
15 degrees from the muzzle.
140 meters.

Commanding counterattack.

Reinforcement on the way. Over.
It's a tank!
They are pulling out the tank.
What are we waiting for? I can't stand it anymore.
Out of the heavy weapons we seized
we only have a recoilless rifle
and these ammunition left.
It's all written in English.
I can't understand it.
Down!

Blow the bugle.
All-out assault now.

Hit the roof with suppressive fire!
Cover us!
If we go out now,
we'll be within the range of their tank.
If we don't destroy the tank,
we can't blast the bridge.
It's loaded.
We'll put the dynamite under the tank
and blow up the tank too!
We can't hang on much longer!

You think we gonna make it out of here, Scotty?
- I hope so.
- God knows how many of them are coming next time.
Gee.
Gonna be another 3 days till our boys are cleared.
That's 10.000 of our guys that we gotta watch out for.
You know, Smith said this is not a retreat.
We're just advancing in another direction.
That's considerate.
Better than advancing into hell guess.
Sir, we've patched up the north side over there with wood.
But it still needs some reinforcement.
And that's a problem because we are all out of steel.
And we still need to fix that pipe over there too.
Make it happen.
Send another request to HQ.
And get me more firepower around this bridge.
If they blow it one more time,
we'll be up shit's creek without a paddle.
Yes sir.
Hurried up, guys!

Damn Smith, I told him not to retreat.
Doesn't he know he could face a court martial?
What's the UN's reaction
to the A bomb plan?
- It engendered controversy, sir.
Contact all factories cooperating with our military in Tokyo.
Make sure to get that damn bridge fixed.
Yes, sir.
Yang Wenjian, where did you get that vehicle?
This half-track was seized
by the commander at Koto-ri.
The weapon on the top is not working.
But it can still move.
No matter how many times they fix the bridge,
we will blast it
every time they fix it.
As long as the bridge is there, our mission still stands.
I said,
we would win
and take them home.
My wife said,
when I go home again,
I must teach math to my daughter.
Let's say goodbye here.
Come back alive.
Wanli, your mission
is to blow the whistle in every 3 hours
at different locations
on the south or north side of the bridge
so as to distract the U.S. Army.
The rest of the 9th Company and I
will do our best to draw firepower onto us.
So that Qianli will have 10 more seconds for his mission.
Remember, you must do your best to survive
and accurately report the situation here
to our reinforcements.
- Stay alert!
- What was that? - Get up!
Let's keep everyone awake. And get them some coffe.
Yes, sir!
Stop it!

In fact, the innovative strategy to repair the bridge
was the first of its kind in history.
Good work, boys!

What are you looking at, sir?
Could be a warning sign, soldier.
It's telling us, we don't have much time to pull out.
We really need to think this through.

We will take whatever steps are necessary
to meet the military situantion

A-BOMB
Mr. President, does that include use of the atomic bomb?
Mr. President, perhaps it would be better if we are allowed
to quote your remarks on that directly?
Does this mean that we wouldn't use the atomic bomb
except on a United Nations authorization?
The action against communist China
depends on the action of the United Nations.

Bro, the 2nd Squad has pulled out.
They've pulled out already.
Don't waste it.
Listen.
Save the gauze for someone who can survive.
Cut and distribute to everyone.
The wounded first.
Come over here.
We seized the U.S. canned food from the airstrip.
Instructor, you have it first.
Do as you're told,
and stop that nonsense.
Open your mouth.
It's an order.
Don't chip your teeth on the beans.
Changgui, what are you chewing?
This is good stuff. It's a bit sticky,
like plastic.
(Chewing Gum)
265, Wu Haifeng.
281, Sun Yong.
Take cover!
Take cover now!
Hide the bodies.
Hurry!
Enemy planes!
Hurry!
Carry them into the cave.
Hurry!
Wanli!
- Where's Wanli!
- Commander!
Commander, take cover!
Qianli!
I'm here.
Squat down and don't move!
I see what you mean, sir.
The air is ours.
Call the fly boys,
to back up our troops with some more fire power.
Yes, sir.
How did you guys manage to blast the bridge last night?
What tactics did you use?
Which part did you blast?
Yang, tell them about it.
Yes, sir.
We used the old tactics of creating a diversion.
Our 2nd Platoon made a feint attack on the north side of the bridge.
We dragged out their formation, blocked their bullets,
and restrained their heavy weapons.
All these distracted the enemy's attention.
On the south side, the 1st Platoon
disguised as wounded U.S. soldiers,
while being covered by the 3rd and 4th Platoons.
By infiltrating into the enemy,
they could blast the bridge.
However, they all got caught.
But they managed to take the dynamite pack
onto the bridge before they were killed.
At the crucial moment,
the commander fired the Bazooka
and it blew up the dynamite pack.
But there weren't enough explosives
to collapse the bridge.
The operation failed.
Over this way, boys, over this way.
Took those assholes a whole night just to crack this little hole?
The bridge is our only option.
And must be.
Can't we just fly these boys out?
It will be faster than try to fix this.
We are talking about something we don't have.
The runway is gone.
Are we all clear on the enemy's deployment of firepower?
Are the troops in position?
Yes sir, as requested.
Stay alert.
There's nothing stopping these guys from attacking during the day.
Understood.
All units are in position, sir.
The ground is hot
after bombed by incendiaries.
Bury the batteries in the ground.
Our batteries might have come back to life.
Yu,
our border is over there.
That is home.
Exactly.
That's our motherland.
Our scout is coming back.
He's from the 9th Company.
Commander, Tian Xiangnan is back.
He's from the 9th Company.
Commander,
I have found
their headquarters.
You want to raid their HQ?
It's too cold to stand up.
We can't even pull the bolt from our rifles.
With 10 dynamite packs and 2 bazookas only,
how could we fight them?
Even if you catch their commander,
can we blast the bridge successfully?
What if the plan fails?
The 7th Company continues to blast the bridge.
They would certainly call for reinforcements.
Then it'll be harder to fight them.
Tell me,
is there any easy battle?
The harder it is,
the more determined we should be.
Our army has already set a strategic plan.
It's to cut off their only route to retreat.
So they'll have
nowhere to run.
Remember,
there is no if.
Commander. Where is the wound?
Our commander was shot last night
during a mission.
The plane opened its butt end
and poured down bullets and bombs.
After that, our men in yellow uniforms
dropped one after another.
What should we call those brothers
who were sacrificed?
What should we call those who froze to death
after marching for 6 days and 6 nights
without any food or sleep?
There aren't any heroes who will never freeze to death,
let alone ones who will never be killed.
A soldier only lives for honor and glory.
The heavier the enemy's firepower is,
the stronger we will be.
We must show them we're not to be trifled with.
What's the ammo situation at the secondary location?
Last time we checked,
we had double the amount we requested.
76 AP, 30.
105 HP, 60.
30 CAL heavy machine gun, 2.
B.A.R, 6.
60mm mortar, 6.
MK2 pineapples, 500.
30 CAL carbine bullets, 5000.
Test 1, 2, 3...
- Test 1, 2, 3...
- Good afternoon, sir.
Good news, sir.
Reinforcements are on their way.
It won't take them more than 18 hours .
Sir, we are waiting the next order.
We are maintaining hourly contact.
3rd Battalion, 7th Regiment,
on the move.
Minimal enemy activity detected.
Reinforcements reassured. Arrival on time.
Over.
On time.
Well, Brad.
That's a blessing.
- Have you ever played hide and seek?
- Played hide and seek, sir?
- Yep.
- I haven't done so for a long time,
certainly not at Christmas.
- Well, we're gonna have to do it here.
We're gonna surprise them.
Go invisible,
lure them on the bridge, then jump out like
Jack Rabbit and squash them roaches.
Call it a day.
Based on the old commander's plan,
the 7th and 9th Companies shall cooperate
and split up in 4 units.
I'll take Yu Congrong and Wanli
to raid the U.S. HQ,
capture their commander and force them to surrender.
Mei Sheng and He Changgui
will attack the south and north side
of the bridge, knock down their watchtower
for attririon.
Ping He
will lead the 9th Company
to go through the pipes and seize the Pump House.
Once the bridge is under control, wait for my osprey whistle
and blast it.
What's the Pump House?
The Pump House...
The Pump House is their heart.
You're the best bazooka shooter in the 7th Company.
Remember, don't move before the first firing point
is blown up.
Yes, sir.
Commander,
I have something to tell Wanli.
Save them
until we've finished the battle.
Wanli,
Commander Baili
died because of me back then.
I'm so sorry for that.
Baili is my brother
and you're my brother too.
All of the soldiers in the 7th Company
are my brothers.
My brother died protecting his comrades.
If I were him,
I would do the same thing.
Thank you.
Brother.
Wanli.
Commander.
What?
I...
Well...
What I told you before
might not...
might not all be correct.
You...
You...
I know.
You care about me.
I didn't let you run around before as you might cause trouble.
But now,
run as you wish
and fly
as you like.
Do it fast.
Throw the grenades
as far as possible.
That's our motherland.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Long live the People's Republic of China.
Look, is that a radio CV?
Yes.
The radio CV
should be very close to the HQ.
The lights are on in all five blockhouses.
Only one of the houses is not lit-up
with a sniper staying on guard.
I bet that is their HQ.
Yang Wenjian,
was their defense on south side looks like this last time?
All of the fire points
at the south end of the bridge have been removed.
Looks like a trap.
The south fort armed with heavy firepower
must be there to protect the bridge.
We must capture it first.
- Xiao Laoxi.
- Yes?
Go to the north side of the bridge.
Tell them no matter what happens, do not fire
without my signal.
- Yes, sir.
(Searchlight. Down.)
(Leave now)
Bravo 1 to Command,
North Tower down.
Over.
- Password.
- 79.
Steel.
The Instructor said something's wrong on the bridge.
Do not fire without his signal.
Take care of his wound.
Yes, sir.
If we can capture their commander
before Ping He's team and force them to surrender,
we will be haft way there.
Do you see that blockhouse?
Blow it up and we'll commence our operation.
Yes, I saw it.
Can you throw a grenade over there?
No problem.
I myself am a cannon.
Go ahead.
Where are you going?
- Not like that.
- Didn't you tell me to fly as I like?
You have to coordinate with your teammates too!
Grenade!
It's a signal from the commander!
- Artillery Platoon, get ready.
- Load it up.
Fire!
Full alert!
Don't panic! Wait for orders!
Bravo 1 to Command,

Repeat!
Enemy assault! South Town down!
Permission to respond. Over.
This is Command here.
Keep the rest on full alert.
Wait to spring the trap,
copy?
- Copy, out.
This may be a decoy.
The main assault may even be coming from the north.
Stay put. Keep your eyers open
and let them take the bait.
Enjoy, boys.
Out.
Game on.
Let's play.
It was indeed a trap.
Aim for the heart!
- What was that?
- Everybody stay calm.
- Quiet.
- Are you OK?
What was that?
There has been an explosion.
Ask south tower to contact HQ!
Full alert!
Tian Xiiangnan, bring 2 of your men
to scout inside.
- Yes, sir.
Zhong Dingyi, Shen Hailong. Let's go!
Alpha Team to command. Red alert.
Pump house hit!
Wait one!
Request permission to defend!
Repeat!
Request permission to defend!
Over!
Well, that didn't take them long to take that bait, did it?
Not exactly, sir.
The explosion went off inside the Pump House.
Where about?
Inside the Pump House!
Oh, shit!
Goddamnit!
Entrances on both sides. Block them.
Yes.
Move it, move it!
Everybody stay alert.
All clear.
Take cover!
Did I miss something, sir?
Was this part of your plan, sir?
It was
if we win.
Command, Command.
Enemy detected in south-east.
- Over.
- Command to Bravo,
cut out enemy's retreat with 2 troops.
Relay my command,

- Over.
South Fort, South Fort.
Provide suppressing fire

Hold the rest on full alert.
We're going to wait spring the trap.
Over.
Enemy at 11 o'clock!
Open fire!
Let's go!
Get some men in there. Go, go, go!
Move it, move it!
Tanks, Swanson, take the lead.
Smoke, watch the corners.
Right wing, downstairs.
Evacuate now! Get everybody out!
Let's go!
I can't breathe.
See anything?
No, there's too much smoke.
They blew over the pipe!
Use the grenade!
Fire in the hole!
Grenade! Dodge!
Dodge!
Load me up!
Get those men out of here! Move it, move it!
Let's go!
- Zhong Dingyi, blast the nouth gate.
- Yes, sir!
Zhong Dingyi.
Yu, He Changgui didn't attack from the nouth side.
There must be a reason. I'll go down to find their HQ.
You guys go take down the key point. Especially you!
- Don't be reckless.
- I'll behave.
Tell us before you go anywhere.
Okay.
Alest! South Fort under attack!
Enemy at 12 o'clock!
Ammo loaded. Ready to fire!
Jesus Christ!
Target engaged.
Fire!

Leave now! Fire in the hole, 30 seconds!
Move!
Clear out now! Move, move, move!
Hurry up!
Move! Move!
- Everybody, run!
- We are attacked!
We are unarmed!
- Don't shoot!
- Who's your commander? Step forward!
He doesn't understand! You don't see?
- We are unarmed!
- Bomb! Bomb!
Where's your commander?
I'm ask you, where your commander?
Let's go, come on!
Seize the second floor.
Take down that wall.
So we can get to the surface of the bridge.
Here's the blind spot.
Need to go over there.
- Yang Wenjian.
- Present!
Can you discern their firepower deployment?
One M9 Bazooka.
One recoilless rifle.
2 mortars.
That is to say there's a 10m space between each fire point.
That should be where they keep their ammunition.
Use semaphores! Fire on both sides!
Yes, sir!
(Semaphore: Attention!)
(Semaphore: Attack forward!)
(Semaphore: Against both sides. Over!)
15 degrees from the muzzle.
140 meters.
- Yang Wenjian.
- Here!
Take this! Watch for me.
Watch very carefully!
Okay.
Fire!
Incoming!
Supplies got hit!

Intensify firepower!
Cover for the commando for attack!
Full force!
Reset position!
Urgent supply refill!

Be careful!
Yu Congrong!
Bravo 1, Northern Special Force.
Commanding counterattack.
- Over.
- Message received.
Reinforcement on the way. Over.
It's a tank!
They are pulling out the tank.
What are we waiting for? I can't stand it anymore.
Out of the heavy weapons we seized
we only have a recoilless rifle
and these ammunition left.
It's all written in English.
I can't understand it.
Down!
North! Tank!
Blow the bugle.
All-out assault now.
We'll wait for the commander's signal.
It's a signal to attack. Destroy the tank.
Enemy! Return, fire!
Crush it!
Get over here!
Open up!
Swallow this damn thing!
Let go!
Are you alright?
Qianli, get down!
What the hell!
There's a grenade in my shirt.
Let me get it out! Or we are all going to hell!
Are you okay?
Qianli.
Yu Congrong was shot up there.
Let's go now.
Dammit.
Their commanders wear these types of caps.
He is... the commander we want to capture.
Get into position!
Get ready!
Move!
Fu Sheng!
Destroy it!
How are He Changgui and others doing?
They're pinned by heavy firepower.
They can't even lift their heads.
Cover me with the cannon!
Fire!
Here! Get ready!
He Changgui occupied the north side.
Clear the fire point on the roof!
Yu Congrong!
Yu Congrong!
- Wake up!
- I'm okay, commander.
That helmet saved me.
Retreat!
Go on, fire!
Go! Notify Ping He to blast the bridge!
They didn't take down the tank on the north side.
The tank is on the bridge now.
It'll block our bursts.
Wait for the signal!
Shoot it with recoilless rifle!
The bracket is brocken!
Load it!
Redy for aiming!
Ready! Fire!
- Did we hit the target?
- Yes!
- I can't read the foreign label.
- We loaded in smoke shell instead.
Move the gun ahead!
Hurry!
Hit it with a different shell!
Forget about the signal.
- Get ready to blast the wall.
- This is the last shot.
Hit the roof with suppressive fire!
Cover us!
If we go out now,
we'll be within the range of their tank.
If we don't destroy the tank,
we can't blast the bridge.
It's loaded.
We'll put the dynamite under the tank
and blow up the tank too!
We can't hang on much longer!
Need to find a way out.
You 2 go to the south of the Pump House.
I'll find a way to go in.
Yes, sir!
Go!
It stopped.
- Proceed with the mission!
- Got it!
Commander!
Ping He! How are you doing over there?
Commander!
We can blast the bridge now!
Carrt out the mission!

Ping He, are you okay?
Commander, I'm okay.
Yu Congrong will come to your aid on the south side.
Proceed to blast the bridge.

We successfully accomplished our mission.
Where are Ping He and others?

Set up the gun
and knock down their commanding point!
Set up the gun.
- It's aimed.
- Fire!
Commander, it's from our cannon.
Let's go.
Where are our men in the Pump House?
Check the North of the bridge.
See if anyone is hiding in the pits
or playing dead.
Seize some useful supplies.
Take whatever you can carry.
Let's go.
- Take cover!
- Commander!
U.S. tanks!
The U.S. 1st Marine Division Reinforcements of 3rd

It's the commander's signal for retreat.
The enemy's reinforcements arrived.
But we can't see how many there are.
Retreat!
Notify everyone of full Company retreat.
Commander, it's the order to retreat!
Retreat! Retreat now!
Hurry!
Go!
Listen to me! This is the order!

I told you to retreat. Why did you come over?
Stop yelling. Save your breath.
We're already here.
- Where are the others?
- Everyone has retreated.
Where's Ping He?
He has already fulfilled his mission.
The radio transmitter is working.

Getting into position.
Ready to proceed.
Wake up! Enemy planes!

9th Company, have you see Yu Congrong?
He was just right here.
Quick, lean against the mountain!
8 incendiaries should take care of it.
- Copy.
- Thunder Bird unit, proceed with the mission.
Take cover!
Commander!
They are coming for us.
Come on!
Farewell, 7th Company.
Enemy detected.
Shouldn't be just one man out there.
Let's burn these rats out.
Copy that.
Yu Congrong!
Yu Congrong!
Yu Congrong!
Commander, they are back!
Everyone, take cover!
Don't shoot!
That should do it. Let's get back to base.

I'm alright.
Qianli!
- Qianli!
- Mei.
Mei.
I'm here.
I'm here.
I'm here.
Attention, all engineers.
H1C:
You have 3 hours to repair the bridge.
Consolidate C1, B3 sections. South side
All units.
Condition 1 in operation.
Stay on point.
Jesus Christ.
If those bastards had gotten a yard closer,
this bridge would have been toasted!
You think we gonna make it out of here, Scotty?
- I hope so.
- God knows how many of them are coming next time.
Gee.
Gonna be another 3 days till our boys are cleared.
That's 10.000 of our guys that we gotta watch out for.
You know, Smith said this is not a retreat.
We're just advancing in another direction.
That's considerate.
Better than advancing into hell guess.
Sir, we've patched up the north side over there with wood.
But it still needs some reinforcement.
And that's a problem because we are all out of steel.
And we still need to fix that pipe over there too.
Make it happen.
Send another request to HQ.
And get me more firepower around this bridge.
If they blow it one more time,
we'll be up shit's creek without a paddle.
Yes sir.
Hurried up, guys!
Latest news from the front.
The Sumun Bridge, the army's main route for rear advance
has come under attack for a second time.
The 1st marine division is facing a major test.
TOKYO
DAI-CHI BUILDING
General, the main structure at the Sumun bridge
has been damaged.
If the bridge gets hit again, it may be unusable.
Damn Smith, I told him not to retreat.
Doesn't he know he could face a court martial?
What's the UN's reaction
to the A bomb plan?
- It engendered controversy, sir.
Contact all factories cooperating with our military in Tokyo.
Make sure to get that damn bridge fixed.
Yes, sir.
Yang Wenjian, where did you get that vehicle?
This half-track was seized
by the commander at Koto-ri.
The weapon on the top is not working.
But it can still move.
No matter how many times they fix the bridge,
we will blast it
every time they fix it.
As long as the bridge is there, our mission still stands.
I said,
we would win
and take them home.
My wife said,
when I go home again,
I must teach math to my daughter.
Let's say goodbye here.
Come back alive.
Wanli, your mission
is to blow the whistle in every 3 hours
at different locations
on the south or north side of the bridge
so as to distract the U.S. Army.
The rest of the 9th Company and I
will do our best to draw firepower onto us.
So that Qianli will have 10 more seconds for his mission.
Remember, you must do your best to survive
and accurately report the situation here
to our reinforcements.
- Stay alert!
- What was that? - Get up!
Let's keep everyone awake. And get them some coffe.
Yes, sir!
Stop it!
- There is no one there!
- What are you shooting at?
Music, lieutenant!
Yes, sir!
♪ I'm gonna buy a paper doll ♪
♪ that I can call my own ♪
♪ A doll that other fellows cannot steal ♪
Now that's more like it.
What was that?
Come on, you never heard of this song before?
♪ I'm gonna buy a paper doll... ♪
What a classic.
Can't believe I'm heading this song in the shithole.
Who are they kidding.
♪ She'll be the truest doll in all this world ♪
♪ I'd rather have a paper doll to call my own ♪
Reload!
Target truck!
Open fire!
Enemy truck coming down the hill!
Take cover!
Jesus!
What the hell!
Hold!
I don't like the look of this, sir.
Wait.
Let's keep him alive.
It'll be more exciting for us.
Anybody know the word "surrender" in his language?
No, sir.
Fire!
The U.S. army we are going to face
has the best equipment in the world.
This battle will be extremely arduous.
But we need to strive for victory.
Qianli!
Qianli.
I didn't let you run around before
as yiu might cause trouble.
But now,
run sa you wish
and fly
as you like.
Sir, there are no more enemies below the bridge.
Should I keep burning?
No, soldier.
We've burnt them enough it's time we go home.
Yes, sir!
This is AFNK, bringing you the latest news from the Front.
After 10 long days of battle,
more than 14.000 American troops
found themselves trapped on the Koto-ri Plateau.
Their only safe escape, the Sumun Bridge
had been destroyed in a fire fight.
The Far East Combat Cargo Command
dispatched a request to HQ in Tokyo for emergency support.
At 9 a.m. on December 7th,
8 Air Force C-119 flying boxcars
appeared over Koto-ri.
Secured to each aircraft is a section of M-2 bridge.
Each weighing nearly 1134 kg!
In fact, the innovative strategy to repair the bridge
was the first of its kind in history.
Good work, boys!
this is Canas Richards, signing off.
What are you looking at, sir?
Could be a warning sign, soldier.
It's telling us, we don't have much time to pull out.
We really need to think this through.
It's gonna be a tough war, soldier.
We have to remember what happened here.
Hungnam Port

U.S.A.
"A bottle of Whiskey that ends wars"
Time to go home, buddy.
The Battle of the Sumun Bridge was a
typical interpenetrating attack
into the depth of the U.S. defense.
It hd significant importance in cutting of the enemy's retreat,
crushing the enemy's morale, and accelerating
the course of the battle.
This battle demonstrated our aemy's indomitable spirit in battle
and the powerful will of Chnaese people
to defend Chinese nation's dignity!
Rest in peace, boys.
Merry Christmas.
Hurry! Assemble at Hungnam Port.
3rd Battalion, hurry!
Keep up!
Be carefull, take cover!
Commander, he is one of us.
I think he's from the 7th Company.
